It made me wonder what changes in a marriage to make one partner want to kill the other? Is it money? Is it revenge? Do they just drive each other crazy? And why is it more often it seems that the man kills his pregnant wife? Is pregnancy to blame? All these questions! I need answers. I believe in marriage, very strongly in fact which is probably due to the fact that my parents went through a messy divorce when I was 18. I often feel like I would have been less scarred by this incident had I not spent 18 years of my life knowing my family as a family unit. It was messy and they stuck us in the middle a lot and suffice it to say, I never want to go through with a divorce so when I say "I do" to "till death do us part", I'm going to mean it. I wonder if the people who are "suspected" of killing their wives felt the same way and perhaps, that's why they killed their ladies rather than go through a divorce. I suspect the world may never know their "true motives" and will instead create many theories and such on why Scott Peterson and Mark Hacking killed their wives (well, I guess I should wait for the verdicts in either case but I believe that they are guilty as can be).
Maybe this is something that psychologists should study. "Why Spouses Kill One Another" would be of great scientific value because it could help us understand more how two people go from loving each other enough to get married, to killing one another for either money, personal gain, to get out of marriage etc. Perhaps I'm just talking too much about something I know nothing about because I've never been married.
Oh well... In other news, it looks like it could be another bad day. I had to do the dishes this morning and I feel troubled by the fact that an office full of intelligent, industrious adults fail to do their dishes. I think it stems from laziness and the fact that they are used to the notion that if they leave them there, I will inevitably wash the dishes. I wonder what would happen if I went on dish washing strike? Would people wash their own dish as I was taught as a child? I think not.
